Upcoming Events

The Carl Shechter Southwest Focal Point Community Center Campus provides numerous affairs and fundraising events throughout the year "free of charge" to the general public. Examples of happenings here at the SWFP include our Annual Health Fair, Flea Markets held quarterly, Fall Arts & Crafts Show, Biennial Summer Open House and our annual Holiday Open House. Other events, such as our Bi-annual Antique Shows, Themed Tea Parties and monthly themed dinner dances with live entertainment are offered at a minimal charge. The Carl Shechter Southwest Focal Point in conjunction with local and Charter Schools and city departments organize a food drive each year to provide Pembroke Pines residents who may be in need of assistance with a bountiful Thanksgiving dinner.

Each year, we host the Annual Broward Aging Network Conference (BANC) presented by the Aging & Disability Resource Center of Broward County. This event is for all seniors, caregivers and aging network professionals. Registration to the conference includes free health screenings, attendance of medical and social agencies, educational presentations, raffles, lunch and entertainment. For further information see the attached flyer noted in the list below.

Southwest Focal Point has become the new home for the Veterans Employment Expo. This new cause has provided much assistance to our veterans in their venture to find employment within the community. We have partnered with many local companies and government agencies who have the same goal we have in mind: To give back to our military!

Our experienced staff is dedicated to our members and strive to make these events joyful and exciting for all.
